John Oliver Destroys Chris Matthews On 'The Daily Show'

It's John Oliver's last week guest-hosting "The Daily Show." If
one of Monday night's segments is any indication, he can't wait
for Jon Stewart to get back.

The segment, incidentally, was titled, "Can't You At Least Wait
Until Jon Stewart Gets Back." In it, Oliver shreds MSNBC host
Chris Matthews, who has a recent history of flubbing predictions
about Republican presidential nominees.

His latest prediction last week — a full three-plus years before
Election Day in 2016 — was that Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) will run,
and he will win the Republican nomination.

"All this time, I thought you were paid to spit on a camera
lens," Oliver said.

"But look — if making sound predictions is what Chris Matthews
does for a living, then he may have a bit of a problem. Because
finding soundbites of people saying things that directly
contradict the claim they just made — that's what we do for a
living."

How did Matthews do in the last two presidential elections? In
2006, he said Rudy Giuliani would become president. In 2011, he
predicted that Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) would beat out
eventual nominee Mitt Romney.
